Sophie Isabella Atwater was born September 1, 2011 at Stephens Memorial Hospital in Norway Maine. She weighed 8 lbs 13 oz and was 22 3/4 inches long. She is a perfect little angel and we are glad to have her as the newest member of our eternal family.

Ephraim wanted Patricia to make a Godzilla cake for his birthday and like always she did a wonderful job. Ephraim was so excited. I don’t know why but my kids seem to love Godzilla so you can imagine how happy he was that day.

Ephraim wanted to go to the wildlife park for his birthday. None of us have been there before and it was a great experience. We got to see a lot of the wildlife from Maine and a few extras as well. Patricia saw a real moose for the first time and was impressed with its size. Of course the kids loved it as they love to see any animal up close.

I did it, I finally did it. I am now Dr. Jarom Atwater, DPT. The first two pictures of the Hooding Ceremony the night before and the rest are of graduation day. It has been a very busy week but a very good week. I love my family for supporting me through all of this especially my wife Patricia who has been the most understanding person and my greatest help in life. Thanks to everyone else for your encouragement.

We had a really good April fools joke played on us here in the north-east. We decided to make the most of it and got our winter clothing back out and had some fun. The kids had a blast playing in the snow especially since it was wet snow, perfect for snowball fights and a cute snowman.
